Soonercuda, who do you think is a good comparison for Murry. Haven't had a chance to watch any video.

She is a tall shooting guard....also has ability to drive to the basket. On our team I would say Caya Smith is the best comparison...but a better shooter and a notch lower in quickness and athleticism.

Maybe a cross between Payton and Leah Rush. Never know how they will pan out, but looking forward to watching the 3 new ones coming in next year.

Who will we get to replace Beers anyone have any idea

 

[Bball121]

Unless we pick up an AA center out of the portal it’ll be Brooklyn Stewart would be my guess. Possibly LeeLee Bell if she comes in ready as a freshman.

Well Brooklyn is gonna have to put some weight on if she is going to be our center. But I doubt she will be a center for us because she is too good on defense that can defend small guards well. I can see Leelee possibly being a bigger and probably better version of Skylar Vann. But I think OU is going to the Portal for a Big. I believe they don’t really have a choice. With players like Zya, Aaliyah, Caya and Keziah we need a True big regardless.

 

[Soonercuda]

We need for sure a proven Center from the portal….if possible I would like us to get second C/PF….bigs often take a year to get ready and develop for college that is a lot more physical than high school or club

LeeLee Bell team playing again tonight at 7:30 on YouTube

Would love to pick up 2 centers in the portal. I know getting 1 is hard to do. Immediate playing time may help.

 

[Soonerguy06]

Agreed. If we don't want to take a massive step backwards I believe we will need to get a portal center. With what we have coming back/coming in we only have two forwards (Stewart & Bell) and they would essentially have to play out of position and/or be a tad undersized, which could hurt us in the SEC. I have faith that JB will find someone. I also believe we need 1 or 2 veteran guards/wings from the portal as well if we want to keep moving forward as a program. Looking at 'lesser' programs that continue to land midmajor talent via the portal year after year makes me think it's achievable, just a matter if JB is willing to risk offending some younger players/resulting in transfers by getting someone that can play immediately for us. It's a tricky situation to be in as a coach!

we do not need no Forwards. We have Sahara coming back next season and Brooklyn and Leelee is coming in. We good there. I definitely believe we could a experience guard or two and Center or 2. Thats all we really need. Other than that we are fine everywhere else.
